Newspaper Page TextPAGE EIGHT JHE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON MONDAY. JULY 21. 1930 CHEESE TRADE WEAK; BUTTER HOLDING FIRM , - r Portland. Ore., Ott While con ditions in the cheese trade appear on the mend in the big eastern pri marv and consuming markets, weak ness of serious character continues In spots along the Oregon coast. Prices received here have been 4 to 5c .lb. below what Tillamook Is quoting and getting. The latter Is already quoting a low price al though It continues the highest now available in the United Slates for similar type. The cutting ap pears most general in the southern coast centers and at Willamette valley points. Market for butter continues to reflect more or less of a firm tone locally with a further decrease re ported In the make throughout the Pacific northwest. There was no further price change for the open ing of the week. Full steadiness Is continued in the market for live poultry. In the chicken trade late arrivals have been severely cut which has forced prices on a very firm basis at re cent advances. Both veal and hogs show a good demand locally with late arrivals of more or less seasonable and restricted volume. Lambs continue In good euply with a slow call. Beef is very slow. With Yakima rapidly cleaning up its apricots and Wenatchee al ready through, the local 'cot situa tion is steady to strong with ad vances in spots. Offerings from The Dalles are of lighter volume. There was practically no general change in the berry market for the day. Logans contnued scarce but the price was held back. Strawber ries were too scare to quote. Rasp berries were steady. Latest arrival of GTavensteln apples from California show per haps the first fairly well colored offerings. The market Is fairly steady around $2.50. Local apples, are selling around $1.25 for Jumble pack. Seedless grapes In larger supply, of good quality. Prices sharply lower again. Cantaloupes are very scarce with prices again 25c crate higher. Tomatoes in larger supply with some price reaction. Potato market is depressed and about 25c lower generally. Onions are about steady at late prices for Walla Walla stock. Bartlett pear movement is due to start out of Yukima. Citrus fruits are generally un changed for the day. SHIP22CARS LABISH CELERY Shipments of early celery from the Lake Lablsh district no lar this year have totaled about 22 cars running about even with such ship ments at the same time last year. In addition to the 22 full cars con siderable quantities have gone out In less than car lots by express to Portland, Washington, Montana and other more or less local points, fhe carlot shipments have been in the main to further destinations. The celery crop Is In fine shape this year with also a good looking late crop of celery in prospect. Late celery starts around September 1 And In the meantime a considerable more quantity of early celery will go out. The onion crop lj also looking fine on the lake. These will not start to move until around late Septem ber but it Is expected 800 cars of onions will move out this year as compared to the average 600 cars. . The increased shipments will be en tirely due to the heavy additional planting on the Hayes holdings. 250 more acres of onions having gone In there.

STOCK MARKET LOSSES HEAVY VOLUME LIGHT New York IIP) A major Dart of the substantial gains made during the past week was wiped out in the initial session of the week on the stock exchange Monday. Losses ranged from one to 10 points. The decline during the first three hours of the session was slow and marked by no increase in trad ing activity. Then there was a mid afternoon rally, which did not hold", and afterwards large blocks of the principal trading stocks were thrown on the market. Bearish professionals, who have been put ting out short lines for the past few days, grew Increasingly aggres sive. Preliminary averages of Dow. Jones and Co., showed a loss of e.SS points to 230.01 for the 30 in dustrials and a loss of 1.35 points to 133.90 for the 20 rails. Sales to taled 1,947,070 shares, compared with 2,750,550 shares Friday. Weakness was greatest in volatile shares such as Auburn, J. I. Case, Consolidated Gas and Vanadium, these Issues suffering losses of 4 to nearly 10 points, the downward movement in other sections was more orderly with losses in leaders such as United States Steel, Gen eral Motors, General Electric and Radio generally limited to less than four points. Weakness near the close was ac companied by a sizeable increase in trading activity, tickers falling nearly 10 minutes behind trading on the floor, so great was the sell ing. Unsettlemcnt near the close was created by news of the ship ment of $1,000,000 in gold to Can ada the first shipment since No vember, 1928, and the possible fore runner of large shipments. Absence of rallying tendencies In both cotton and wheat was another adverse factor and stocks were gen erally weak at the close. POULTRYMEN PLAN CORYALLIS SESSION Oregon State College. CorvallLs.

SENATE RATIFIES LONDONNAVAL PACT (Continued from pap f by Great Britain and Japan before it Becomes ei recti ve. Washington iff) The senate Mon day rejected the reservation of Senator Walsh, democrat, Massa chusetts, to the London naval treaty, asserting It to be the policy of this government to favor con-1 sruction of all the ship allowed by me pact. The senate previously adopted the Norris resolution stipulating that no approval is given by rati fication to any secret agreement1 or understanding which may exist in reiauon to me pace. Washington (LP Senator Wag ner, democrat, N. Y.t Monday con- aemned uie London naval treaty for falling to obtain reduction but; urged the senate to ratify the in strument on tne grounds that its virtues outweighed its faults. Chiding the administration for attempting to make political capi tal of the pact, Wagner recalled" President Hoover's statement of June 30. 1929, that: 'Limitation Is not our goal, but actual reduction of existing com mittments to lower levels." Persons who expected that goal to be achieved, Wagner said, had been sadly disillusioned. The prin ciple of reduction, he continued, had so few friends at London "that some of them began to doubt it was on the agenda." As Wagner arose to address the senate,' Vice-President Curtis an nounced the business In hand was the resolution ol ratification, pro posed just before adjournment Sat urday by Chairman Borah of the foreign relations committee. The senator said America "listen ed and cheered" President Hoover's promise of reduction last year. But he complained the pact had not even guaranteed limitation because the escalator clause would enaoie any signatory to exceed treaty lev els at will. But warning or the ill will and suspicion which he said would be created by rejection of the treaty. Wagner urged ratiiicauon.

Grain Dealer and Shipper Buyers Wheat, Oats Barley Sellers Grain, Bags, Twine Farmers' Grain Warehouse HARRY MILLER State License Warehouse No. 374 File Charges Against Van Trump for Fees On Plant Shipments Charires of nettv craft S. H. Van Trump were lodged last week with District At torney Carson and the state board of control by a group of Woodburn fruit growers as an indl- & rect outcome of the hearing held here some time baclc to oust Van Trump at the behest of H. 8. Mer rlam, a member of the state board of horticulture. In their charges the fruit growers aver that Van Trump for a number of years has been collecting fees for Inspecting strawberry plants shipped to the outside of the state and have presented a number of canceled checks from H. A. Hyde & Company, largest of strawberry shippers to back up their charges. They say there Is no authority of law to warrant collection of such fees. All told the checks probably do not total over $60 and fees so collected average from $5 to $10 a year at the outside. Van Trump readily admits receiv ing such fees but denies strenuously that thero is any graft connected with It and avers that the fees have been collected not only by him but by Inspectors In other counties un der authority of an action by the state board of horticulture. He declares that about seven years ago the strawberry plant shippers of Oregon who ship most of their plants into Oregon were faced with a threat of being put out of busi ness by a California quarantine. California horticultural authorities, he states, protested against unin spected strawberry plants being shipped into that state from Oregon and hinted that if the plants were not inspected at the source Califor nia would shut them out. Manager Bowman of Hyde & com pany, stated Van Trump, -appealed to the board in the matter and vol unteered to have his company pay for inspection if the board would authorize such Inspection. So, states Van Trump, the board approved a motion permitting such inspection as private inspection and requiring payment 01 a lee by an snippers 01 strawberry plants. This, Van Trump states, in no manner applies to reg lar Inspections of strawberry plants or planting as to disease but only to plants snipped out ior sale as plants. Van Trump says the inspec tion fees last year only totaled around $5 for this county and In no year as he remembers, exceeded $10. He states that he will secure irom C. A. Park, for years member of the board here, a certificate showing that such ruling was made by the board In event the board minutes fail to reveal such formal action on the part of the board, that the rul ing was made at the request of Mr. Park and other Inspector's than the Inspectors in this county have fol lowed it. As near as can be learned the dis trict attorney and state board of control have neither taken any ac tion on the charges against Van Trump. The Woodburn fruit growers who are sponsoring this latest attack on Van Trump have been active in a movement to secure the naming of a county agent for Marion county, and Van Trump is considered one ol the biggest obstacles to be overcome in securing appointment of such an agent The same group now making charges against Van Trump appear ed at the first Merriam hearing against the local Inspector and also at the board of control hearing in both Instances maintaining a hos tile attitude against Van Trump and since that time, through the Wood burn newspaper have kept up a more or less steady barrage against the Marlon county horticultural in spector.

There was a good rally from the low point late when September wheat went under 91c, the pressure lessening and houses with seaboard connections buying. The beneficial rains over the American northwest and in Canada were the most de pressing influences. Export sales were large, 500,000 bushels of hard i winters being reported worked. Corn was off sharply due to the weather an doats were down in sympathy with the other grains. Chicago (P) Rains and cooler weather led to lower prices early Monday both forw heat and corn. Besides, big arrivals of wheat in Chicago Monday, 1,158 cars, against 382 a week ago, tended to pull val ues down. Opening to I1 cents offT the wheat market afterward underwent an additional sag. Corn started1 1U to 2k cents lower, but subsequently recovered somewhat. Oats was easy. Provisions al&o de clined. BEANS AUG. 22 Canning of green beans is ex pected to start in canneries hero and at Stayton along about August 11 with 275 acres of the beans put ting on an enormous crop to be put Into the cans. The entire acreage is handled by three canneries, the Oregon Pack ing company, the Stayton cannery and with Reid, Murdoch company as a new factor in the field. The Stayton cannery is expected to handle about 50 acres of the beans in the main this cannery us ing a slightly larger bean than that used by the Oregon Packing com pany. The Oregon Packing com pany packs the Kentucky Wonder variety mainly. Reid, Murdoch & Company Is planning an extra fancy pack of the Willamette valley beans and it is understood in the main will use the refugee and blue lake varieties.

Overturf of Stev enville, Montana, has his applica tion in. Inexperienced men applying for the job as Gill's successor include Dennis Alysius Heenan, Salem high school graduate who has studied in the physical education department at Notre Dame; Clifford L. Peck, University of Washington graduate and full time assistant in the phys ical education department there, and George F. Kukell of the Ore gon Aggies. The position of Hollls Hunting ton, high school coach, is still up in the air, also. The hold-up on Huntington's contract comes from a possibility of his ineligibility, al though school officials have re ceived verbal assurance that his employment will be perfectly satis factory with the powers-that -be on the state high school athletics board. The local school officials are waiting written assurance, though, so that no question may arise over Huntington's status when Salem high is in the midst of an athletic season.
